So I'm moving my 72 gal this Saturday and was curious if I could move the tank without removing substrate and plants? I'm just imagining the mess of roots I'm going to have if I uproot all of the plants to remove the substrate and would really just like to avoid that. But also don't feel like...

So I'm just curious what got everybody into this addiction. Mine started the first time I went to the shed aquarium in Chicago. Seeing all the different colors and personalities, I was mesmerized. That was when I was about 11 and a year later started with my first aquarium. It was a 55 gal that...

One if my bolivian rams has a piece if the Eco complete stuck in his mouth and I can't catch him to get it out without uprooting all the plants. Should I just watch to see if he gets it unstuck or am I stuck pulling all the plants up?

The Milwaukee aquarium society is having a swap meet this Sunday. There will be vendors and private sellers. This is the first time that I'm going so I'm pretty excited. Just figured I'd share so if anyone else here is from the south east Wisconsin area come on by...

So I just successfully brought one of my platy back from what looked like columnaris. Anyways that leads me to the accusation my wife made lol. So apparently spending 25 bucks on a box of meds to cure a fish that only costs a dollar is irrational. Idk to me it's not the money that matters. I...

So I'm wondering if anyone here has ever modified their water changer to be able to just run a bottle of prime inline to auto dose as it fills. I've got the idea bouncing around in my head and now I'm kinda set on doing it. Was just curious if anyone has attempted this and either had success or...

So I was thinking about setting up a rainwater collection system. Keeping the barrels in my basement so they stay closer to the temp I need. My question is would it be safe for use in aquariums and if anyone here does this or has done this. Thanks for any help.

My angels are picking my sprites and my rotala verticillaris clean. Is there anyway to get them to focus there attention elsewhere or can I just not keep these plants anymore. The verticillaris seems to be growing pretty quick so if anything ill keep it just as a snack for them but the sprites...

Any body know of any website or other way to get replacement legs for a coralife t5 fixture? None of the LFS can get them, and I broke the legs during my last pwc. . Got it rigged up now but would just rather replace them.

So I have a pair of bolivian rams and the last few days they have been "joined at the hip" and have been not really digging but sifting through the sand in the front right next to one of my swords. And their colors are starting to come in a bit more.

Can anyone Id this guy for me? The one in front, not the livingstoni in back.

The LFS attendant didn't know and it was unmarked other than price.
